    Overview

    This fully operational historic church offers three spacious floors with a versatile interior layout. The sanctuary features soaring ceilings, intricate woodwork, and stained glass. In addition to the main gathering spaces, the property includes two kitchens: a full-service kitchen with a walk-in pantry located in Wesley Hall on the lower level, and a separate galley-style kitchen off the narthex for smaller events. The second level also presents the opportunity to reconstruct a third kitchen. Seven lavatories are distributed throughout the building, supporting large groups and multi-use configurations.

    The property is located at 925 Backus Street in Jackson, Michigan, on approximately 4 acres. With its substantial structure and established communal spaces, the building is designed for continued religious use while also accommodating adaptation for meetings, classrooms, offices, events, and other community-focused formats.

    For tenants, buyers, or operators seeking a substantial historic facility, the layout can support ongoing worship activities or a conversion plan that leverages the sanctuary character and the building’s multiple kitchen and restroom areas. The three-floor configuration provides flexibility for separate functional zones, whether for classroom and office use, event programming, or adaptive reuse into residential or other community-oriented space, subject to applicable approvals.
